Fabulous, natural clear sound. I'd never really heard of Polk before picking these speakers up, and bought them unheard, but was impressed with the quality of construction and quality of components used that I could see just from a visual/tactile inspection. Bringing them home and listening to them was a treat. There were no holes in the frequency response, the clarity was startling. I'm using these in conjunction with a Yamaha Natural Sound preamp/amp. The tone controls are all set to flat (because these speakers need no tonal enhancement).

I bought these little jewels YEARS ago, when I was a dirt poor college student in Ann Arbor. They have served me very well over the years. At some point, when I had a real job, I purchased a Yamaha Subwoofer to go with them, and I have been more than happy with the sound quality. I would recommend them highly for anyone who is looking for a reasonably-priced speaker that has stood the test of time.
